A body has been located in the search for Fiona Edson in Chippenham.

Emergency services have been hunting for the 51-year-old woman, who uses a mobility scooter, following her disappearance on Sunday, 25 June.

Wiltshire 999s has launched a GoFundMe to raise money for her family. The funds raised will be handed over to Fiona’s daughter, who will be able to decide how it is spent – whether it be donated to charity, used to cover living expenses or put towards a funeral.

Having an amount of money available during a period of mourning will help to alleviate the pressures of daily life. If you can spare a few pounds, please donate today.

DONATE HERE

In a statement, Wiltshire Police said: “We can confirm that a body has been found this afternoon (1/7) in the search for missing Chippenham woman Fiona Edson.

“Although formal identification has not yet taken place, Fiona’s family have been updated regarding this development and are being supported by specialist officers. They have asked for privacy at this extremely difficult time.

“Our thoughts remain with Fiona’s family and friends.

“Formal identification will take place in due course. Although it is early stages, we do not believe there to be any suspicious circumstances surrounding the death.”
